Foundations of General Practice Nursing Workshops

APNA is thrilled to deliver the highly regarded Foundations of General Practice Nursing Workshops Australia wide. General practice nursing is a different and unfamiliar environment to other areas of nursing practice. Developed and facilitated by local nurse leaders, this highly interactive workshop will provide an overview of the knowledge and key skills required by nurses new and transitioning into general practice, and those looking for an update.

What you had to say

Really enjoyed the workshop. Being very new to Practice Nursing I felt very much like a sponge… I have taken on board Mel Cromarty’s (facilitator) advice not to try and eat the elephant all at once and have just chipped away at some of the information I received and bit by bit I am improving my practice.

The best education I’ve attended since being a Practice Nurse. Highly recommend.

Very practical. Picked up a lot of information I can implement straight away.

Re Wound Management session in Adelaide, really enjoyed all the wound types and then all brainstorming answers. Great to hear other people’s experiences and way they approach things.

Learnt lots – many a different approach that she used made me think how both my patients and myself could get more out of CDM! Loved it.

Just wanted to say I really enjoyed the workshop. Great content, great people. As a new member I think APNA is the best thing ever!

Invaluable opportunity for professional and personal development, the APNA National Conference Program provides diversity, inspiration, innovation and vibrancy in the education and networking on offer.
